Tad harsh & petty. Knowl doesn't have a SBT account, so I posted it for him.
GMK prides itself on not having a thousand frothing mentalists. Quality not quantity.
Q. How do you know when a forum is dead?
A. When it's members have to resort to copying posts onto other forums so that someone actually reads it.
Unless SISU want to pay inflated rent we're moving whether any of us like it or not...
...irrespective of where we live.

An interesting concept, moving a club but leaving it's fans behind; lets see how that plays out!
What like The Dodgers fans in Brooklyn thought when the team moved to California also the Giants etc went to the grounds on the opening day of each season hoping they would come back? IF it happens I will do the same until they tell me the club is dead.The move would be temporary, no?
There you go you see. You assert that it is inflated rent. Firstly, how can you be so certain what is a reasonable rent and what deals have been offered? Secondly, a whole new negotiation may take place in which a lower still rent is offered. But you've already decided it is inflated. Maybe it will be more than reasonable. How low will it have to be before you will say it's OK?Unless SISU want to pay inflated rent we're moving whether any of us like it or not...

Well an opinion about where CCFC should play does not really affect you like it does thousands of others. Surely you see my point?

In order to build a stadium we own and can profit from?
Who wouldn't want that for our (oops sorry, your) future?
But circumstances aside other clubs have done that successfully - I.e Rotherham and Brighton/
.
Rotherham moved literally a couple of miles because their landlord effectively kicked them out whilst they built their new ground in (not near) Rotherham. Don Valley is probably closer to Rotherham than the new build SISU stadium will be to Coventry.
Remind me wasn't that the idea of the Ricoh o yes and the owners ran out of money and had to be bailed out. The good thing IF Sisu run out of money they can go back to the Ricoh or they can ask for their own bailout.I don't think that can possibly be their plan. "Do the math". It would take decades to pay back, with a fraction of the fanbase remaining to do so from.
Ah but ACL and CCC should have given the club the Ricoh for free because, er, because, give me a minute, it'll come to me.Remind me wasn't that the idea of the Ricoh o yes and the owners ran out of money and had to be bailed out.

All this is a load of bolox I seriously wish Id never found this site I spend all my time hoping someone comes on with good news. Instead we get Sisu Acl CCC some fans bickering others who insist they have the moral high ground supporting either side. This my fellow supporters is the problem we have lost our club to people on one side who are a group whose very exsistance is based on high risk deals and are prepared to lose everything because its not their money, the other a group of councellors etc responsible to the voters. We are of no consequence to the first group and a small %age of the second.Ah but ACL and CCC should have given the club the Ricoh for free because, er, because, give me a minute, it'll come to me.
Because we are not going to be their cash cow any longer. They only invested a big button and, well, it's only fair that they should give the club it. Now. Or else. It will be their fault if the club are 70 million in debt, because the club cannot make ends meet unless we own the zillions we make on pies.
Brighton played 40 miles away in gillingham for 2 years.
What happened then?
They came back. The football league requires you to have robust plans for a return to allow ground sharing, so we would be coming back.
But this is by the by, the OP is saying we should be focusing on putting pressure on both sides to the them around a table and get a deal done to keep us at the Ricoh - do you not agree?
It isn't. The op is saying we should put pressure on acl & Ccc and forgets that there is a third party-Sisu involved.
It is daft to suggest that it is possible in my opinion. This particular business boat sailed away a long time ago and there needs to be a huge amount of goodwill and rebuilding of trust that is only just about possible personally let alone professionally.
A better poll on here would be if you had no trust in your partner would you stick around? Yes or no??
Therefore how can we expect these parties to bury the hate and work together for us??
